I wasn't planning a kitty shoot, but Sophie kept jumping up on the table, so I went with it. :-)
Thanks for looking!

Another great shot. Your kitty is adorable. #5717786Jean E. Hildebrant March 30, 2008
I guess Sophie knows a good shot, lol! Glad she did because this is so pretty. Your edit and comp are just great! #5718079Cindy Bendush March 30, 2008
Leslie, and Jean - thanks so much for stopping by to comment! #5719775Alex T. Mizuno March 30, 2008
The kitty and the flowers - they are complement to each other. How can you think of shooting without either one of them? After all, you have to comply with your contract with the kitty. It's Sophie's world. A perfect portrait Cindy!! #5719850Cindy Bendush March 30, 2008
LOL Alex! You have no idea! Sophie is a princess (in fact her name is "Princess Sophia") a fact she continues to remind us about every day! I've not done a kitty with flowers for fear of everything ending up on the floor, wet and ruined ...with a scared kitty to boot! And I never would have attempted to do this by myself either. But when Sophie insisted on being on the table, I thought, "why not?" and grabbed the kitty teaser...Thanks so much for your awesome support Alex! #5719937

Beautiful, Cindy. I can't let my kitties anywhere near my flowers, even silk ones. They think they're meant to chew on! #5720036Laura L. Gonzales March 31, 2008

Thank you Sam and Laura for your kind comments!Sam - Sophie is a chewer and nothing is sacred, including plastic, toilet paper, and kitchen knives :-P #5726637

Sometimes cats know best!! Wonderful image!!! #5801301Lisa J. Boulden April 20, 2008
She's a wonderful model, through and through. Saw that camera and jumped into action!Cindy Bendush April 20, 2008
Thank you Elizabeth and Lisa! Sophia's in charge I guess - she usually jumps off the table when I want to photograph her...She has a mind of her own and wants us to know it! #5813437Toni Riggs April 21, 2008
